in fact it is a question whether any process has yet been discovered that will render the working of north carolina low grade sulphurets a profitable undertaking rhe discoverer of a process that will fully meet the difficulties to be en countered in our lean sulphurets will have his f r ine se u oil by examining the specimens you observe that iron and copper pyrites frequently occur in combination which faet does not lessen the task of extraction where these two sulphu rets are found together there is a strong tendency for the whole mass to become cupriferous to an exclusive degree as depth is attained which f.ct ma uho bi cittd as a rea.-o fbrthe desertion of deposits supposed to be only auriferous when discovered and opened on the surface there is probably more said and written about north carolina mines to-day than ever before it may be taken as an indication in our favor the better known the resources of a state the more probability of attrac ting intelligent capital let me ay just here that capital alone will do us no good from a permanent legiti mate business standpoint it is thor oughly necessary to have intelligent superior labor ;
